When I was in the USA ,I met the wonderful Brenda Manuelito in Arizona. We shared about transgenerational Trauma and historical Trauma and our similar works in using Storytelling as a tool to assist communities in healing work.I have added the web link in the side bar under digital storytelling , please go and have a look at the site and the stories that she is making with her new partner in this project and co creator – Carmella Rodriguez.Together and with the rest of their team they have developed and grown in leaps and bounds working with the passion of assisting healing through stories ” one community at a time “. This is a passion we share and have met and spoken of in Hawaii and hopefully one day we will do some work together as well. Meanwhile , please have a look and see some of the stories. I have included an excerpt here from the site and a listing of some of the collaborators they have shared with .

This is from the website :

nDigiDreams, LLC is taking digital storytelling to rural and underserved indigenous communities across the United States. Each new media seed they plant is taking on a life of its own. With the Creator’s assistance, their technical assistance and relationship building efforts, and with enormous interest from numerous native community members and collaborators, new offshoots are beginning to take root and grow very rapidly. Hundreds of native individuals are tapping into their ancient knowledge and practices and becoming new nDigiStorytellers.
